Reviews –

Looking at Goodreads and Amazon today I had two more reviews to read. I try to take anything written with a grain of salt. They ‘love it’ great, but I know I’m not ‘the best thing since sliced bread’ in the writing world. If they didn’t like it…I am also not the worst.

We all have our own tastes and what I like, you may not. And how I write, may drive you crazy. I don’t claim to be an English major (Science and Mathematics if you are interested), and on those achievement tests they used to give in high school in the 1970’s (now I’m dated) English was lower than my other scores. Only in the 80’s so not terrible, but not top flight.(now I’m bragging.)

The reviews this morning were very encouraging so I’m not sure how I got off on the more negative ‘feels’. One person was responding to reading Dark Queen and the other to Nightingale. And both included comments which are interesting to read along with their ratings, because comments let you know why the number, at least in that reader’s head.

I didn’t have a particular direction with this post except 1) if you read an author’s book, especially if they aren’t ‘established’ please give them feedback. It might be the only real reward they are getting out of writing. I am making a very small amount of money on each book sold, but being retired it isn’t my ‘income’ if you will. 2) We may not agree on what was written, but I would like to see it from your point of view and I’m pretty sure other authors would too.
